US Captain Claudio Reyna is almost back

Last night, Claudio Reyna played his first soccer since the end of December and he looked good doing it. The US captain played for an hour of the match between Manchester City's reserves and Bolton. City won the match 2-0.

Next stop for Reyna is training with the full team. If training goes well, expect to see him on Sunday when City plays his former club Sunderland.

There is some added pressure to get Reyna on the field as City is lacking in midfield options due to Joey Barton's suspension as a result of cards earned during their match with Liverpool.
